Rangeelay (2013)
Movie Details:
It’s a Jimmy Shergill production. It stars Jimmy Shergill, Binnu Dhillon
and Rana Ranbir as three madcap recovery agents. It marks the gorgeous
Neha Dhupia’s Punjabi movie debut. It repeats the combination of Dheeraj
Rattan and Navaniat Singh, who have churned out masterpieces every time
they have worked together.
All of the above, by itself should be
enough to make you want to watch the movie. ‘Rangeelay’ is the story of
a trio of recovery agents – Sunny (Jimmy Shergill), Titli (Binnu
Dhillon) and Shotgun (Rana Ranbir). They are involved in a variety of
crazy, often hilarious situations while going about their job.
Neha
Dhupia, in her debut Punjabi role, plays a dare-to-dream, sexy and
arrogant girl called Simmi. The leader of the trio, Sunny falls and
falls hard for the aura of Simmi. He uses what he knows best – recovery –
as a way to get the girl of his dreams. But it isn’t that easy, with
the appearance of a ‘twin’ called Vimmi, threatening to ruin the course
of the love story.
The screenplay is mostly a delight, but it
does fail at some points. The real winner of the movie is the dialogues.
They pack a great punch and Jaswinder Bhalla and Binnu Dhillon deliver
with effortless ease.
The music, by Jaidev Kumar, is alright,
with some marvels like “Headache”, “Yaara Tu” and the fabulous
“Boliyaan”. “Boliyaan” is the one track that has the potential to become
a long term hit, one that people will play on repeat.
One can
find no fault with the acting, especially that of Jimmy Shergill’s, who
has returned to Punjabi cinema after almost two years. But the long
break doesn’t affect the movie much, because with his various production
ventures, Jimmy has carved quite the name for himself in Punjabi
cinema. His performance is strong and powerful, totally believable. Neha
Dhupia is also quite the revelation, one would never think that this is
her first time acting in a Punjabi film. Binnu Dhillon, as usual, was
absolutely fantastic, and added a whole other level to the dialogues,
providing for a lot of laugh out loud moments.
In summary,
‘Rangeelay’ might have the same old action-comedy love story angle, but
the treatment, the performances and the dialogues make this one worth a
watch. pr
